Code:
user@server:~$ netstat -lp | grep bitcoind
tcp        0      0 localhost:8332          *:*                     LISTEN      32153/bitcoind
tcp        0      0 *:8333                  *:*                     LISTEN      32153/bitcoind
tcp6       0      0 localhost:8332          [::]:*                  LISTEN      32153/bitcoind
tcp6       0      0 [::]:8333               [::]:*                  LISTEN      32153/bitcoind
As you can see, the RPC port (8332) is only listening for local connections, as expected.
I'm not seeing this at all (localhost is just the source in general). Looks like it's listening just fine.

What firewall are you using? do you have iptables enabled (I assume not since you say others are connecting fine)? It sounds more like your gateway not forwarding ports from your external IP.
